Account Type Groups in the Manual Match Process

During the manual match process, the system subdivides all the intercompany transactions with the same transaction or reference ID into separate groups based on their account type. The entire group of transactions within the manual match process must be matched before the transactions can be assigned a Matched status and a match code.

If both subgroups are matched, the system assigns all of the transactions the Matched status and assigns them one match code. If only one subgroup is matched, but the other is not, all of the transactions are considered mismatched.

The transactions are grouped by their Balance Sheet or Profit/Loss account type as follows:

Balance Sheet group

Profit/Loss group

Example

In the following example, the intercompany transactions all have the same transaction ID 123:

Entity

Partner

Account

Amount

Account Type

A

B

Recltic

100

Asset

A

B

Sales

110

Revenue

B

A

Payltic

100

Liability

B

A

Cog

100

Expense

The system subdivides the transactions into the BS and PL groups as follows:

BS Group

A, B, Recltic, 100, Asset

B, A, Payltic, 100, Liability

Subgroup status: Matched.

PL Group

A, B, Sales, 110, Revenue

B, A, COG, 100, Expense

Subgroup status: MisMatched.

The result is that because only one subgroup is matched and the other is not, the system considers all transactions mismatched, and assigns all transactions in this manual match process a MisMatched status and no match code.
